Charisma Masterclass®
“After working with many people, including executives and celebrities, I have observed communication behaviours on many different levels. When I interact with people I instantly know a person’s charisma level.
Some executives and celebrities exude charisma effortlessly. They use charismatic techniques to engage, hold attention and deliver messages. Charismatic people are credible and clever - they engage you to get what they want from you and can read your charisma levels. And you remember them.
If someone has not developed charismatic skills, this leaves social and professional circles disappointed, and, often frustrated with interactions. I know that charisma can be learnt which is why I developed the Charisma Masterclass® – private charisma sessions for clients."
Richard Reid
Thank you for the excellent charisma coaching sessions conducted just prior to my overseas trip. As you know, I was lacking in confidence and very concerned that I might appear stupid when presenting to an audience of my peers, most of whom are more qualified than me. Working with you closely on a one to one basis enabled me to practice speaking in the way that you taught. This increased my confidence as well as my belief in myself. The techniques that you introduced as a means of self-support, were duly followed with the result that I did feel – as you suggested I could – that I had invited people into my space, rather than I was having to walk into a strange environment. As you know, although many people in the audience spoke good English, many did not and relied on interpreters so your techniques around delivery were paramount in aiding this process – for example, the pre-determined ‘pauses’ and changes in tone and pitch.
Everybody told me afterwards that they had enjoyed the talk and were very complimentary. The organisers said “at the end of each project in which we place commitment, passion and determination, there is an immense professional satisfaction. But without your presence to the first edition of this Congress, this satisfaction wouldn't have been complete. Please receive our deepest and most honest gratitude for your high professionalism, receptivity and charisma with which you shared your knowledge to those present.
